I would also like to thank Coach Mike and Coach Trevor and all the staff at Notre Dame for this amazing opportunity! GO IRISH ”

Back in April, she swam at YMCA Short Course Nationals. Her highest finish came in the 200 free where she touched 2nd in a 1:48.86. She also swam to a 4th place finish in the 200 back (1:58.36) and 200 IM (2:02.89) as well as a 10th place finish in the 100 free (50.44).
